Our Vacation to San Francisco


We are driving across the Bay Bridge into the City.
Kelly, Ashley, and Madison standing at the base of the famous Lombard street. It was so much fun driving down we did it twice. Looking out from Pier 39 at the famous Alcatraz island.
Ashley on Pier 39 with Sea Lions
Standing on Pier 41 with the City in the back
Steve, Ashley, and Madison at a fountain
Ashley found some potted flowers and had to climb in the middle and ask for her picture taken
The family standing on a cable car. We did not ride on one. Maybe next time we go to San Francisco on vacation.
We also went to Muir Woods. It is a stand of Redwood trees. The trees were very impressive. This forest has never been logged which is amazing, this forest stands as it has for centuries.

Standing in an area that was weakened by a fire long ago.
Ashley loved climbing into every spot she could in the forest.



We had a great week in the bay area. Thanks for the hospitality Greg and Family.

Amelia's Baby Blessing

While up in Utah we were able to bless Amelia in Mom and Dad's ward. It was great having so much family there to support us! Thanks for all coming, and helping out with lunch. It was a really nice day! It was nice seeing you all!

Here she is...the star of the day!

The best family picture we could get. Brennan wouldn't sit still for one second, due to all the cookies and cousins!


Mary and Amelia. Aren't they cute?!

Ashley and Amelia. Aren't they cute too?!

Madison. She's up walking all over the place now. (Sorry Ashley, your head got cut off)

Jessica, Matt, and Bridget. You two are naturals!

Bridget all smiles after being feed by her wonderful auntie.


Amanda and Jackson. Another wonderful auntie!

Nate and Mary being silly!

Feeding time! Thanks Lisa!
